April 2011 Papertrey Blog Hop

I have been MIA for about a month. Life has been super busy and I just haven't had time to post. I have made a few projects, just haven't had any extra time to get pictures and blog. But, I am hoping life will be slowing down a big now, just not too much! :)

So, there is nothing like a PTI blog hop to get you back into blogging. This month's challenge is to create a project for a man or boy. Read all the details here.

I decided to use Boy Basics: Out of This World. My 3 boys LOVE that set. I am constantly die cutting and coloring little rocket ships and moons for them to run around the house with. So, this card was inspired by them.

Here is what I came up with.

There is nothing really unique about the card, but I had fun making it. Thanks DJ, Dean, and Dash for giving me 10 minutes and letting me keep one of the rockets I die cut and colored for this project. Love you.

Thanks for stopping by.

Chris Simon: I love the way you put the partial mat stack die cut off-center on the card. It really makes it look like your "universe" goes on much farther than the edges of the card. Great job!; April 27, 2011 at 8:08 AM
